The question of refugee integration and housing in Luxembourg remains a pressing social and political challenge. Municipality 101 invites visitors to the 43e Festival des migrations, des cultures et de la citoyenneté  to imagine a new municipality in Luxembourg, built around citizen participation, diversity, and coexistence beyond existing institutional frameworks.

Through an exhibition, discussions, and a collaborative drawing created on-site by Dutch artist Jan Rothuizen, visitors will help shape the vision of this “101 municipality.”

Together, we will co-create the Municipality 101 Manifesto, envisioning a community where everyone has a voice and a role in shaping a more inclusive society.

While you are at the festival, roaming around 400 initiatives, you can pause for a moment and join our intimate space. Sit on the carpet, enjoy a cup of tea and some desserts, and take a break. You will be able to meet Jan Rothuizen, draw together, and imagine a new reality for Municipality 101.

Exhibition curated by Mohammed Zanboa & Jan Rothuizen Studio

Jan Rothuizen (Amsterdam 1968)  is a visual artist known for his Soft Atlas drawings – handwritten maps that combine observation, conversation, and storytelling. His work has been translated into English, Spanish, and Chinese, and is shown internationally at museums and film festivals.

Rothuizen works beyond the studio, drawing cities by walking through them and meeting the people who live there. His Soft Atlas project, started in 2009 and inspired by Jonathan Raban’s Soft City, explores the space where solid architecture meets subjective experience.

His practice spans drawing, film, and interactive media, including the award-winning documentary Refugee Republic, the VR animated film Drawing Room, and the recent project Tracing Colombia, premiered at IDFA.
